As I continue to explore what I want my paintings to look like I find more interest in deliberate brush strokes that come through in my subjects. Last week on an overcast day, I found this alley in Mt. Vernon, WA that seemed to have the right feel for a painting. Thinking about what my brush stroke with a load of
paint might say as I composed this work, it became clear when I laid down each stroke that I liked what was happening. The objects color stroke became less important than the subject matter and I found satisfaction in this final work. I am going to continue pursuing this method of painting in all scenes, feeling a sense of artistic license to create the scene I want.
